Obstructive Sleep Apnea and You

March 13, 2019

Millions of people are affected by obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) without knowing it. If you have OSA, your airway closes repeatedly during sleep. This interrupts your breathing, with pauses of 10 seconds or more. That can keep you from feeling rested, and may affect your mood and your ability to concentrate the next day.

For Sleep Apnea Awareness Week, we put together some interesting facts about this common condition, along with good news. Special sleep clinics test for OSA, and recommend treatment that can help people–maybe including you–get enough rest at night.
